Exclusive Interior Exterior Pics of New XUV500 ‘W4′; All You Need to Know

You are in the market for a utility vehicle which can lug 5 to 7 people in relative comfort. For its plain drab interiors you do not like the Scorpio and Duster/Terrano just do not feel premium enough for their price tag.

Mahindra’s XUV500 goes over your budget, then what option do you have?

How about the recently launched entry level XUV500 W4 which comes at a greater than 1 Lakh price slash over the next W6 variant? If you are considering buying one, here are a few exclusive interior exterior pictures of the latest launch to give you a clear hang of what goes off the list and how does the car finally manages to look without all the bells and whistles!

1. Mahindra XUV500 W4 Front

So here is what goes missing:

Missing fog lamps

Missing side skirting (not visible in this pic, check other pics for this)

Missing Static Bending lamps (Pic not close enough). Static Bending lamps are additional bulbs in the headlamp cluster which lights up the side-road as soon as you turn your steering for a turn.

However, despite the minor slashes here and there, the basic layout and the fierce love-me-hate-me looks have been carried forward.

2. Mahindra XUV500 W4 Steering Wheel

Here is a shot of the steering wheel of XUV500 which showcases the following:

No audio controls

No voice commads

No Cruise control

W4 gets a tilt power steering, however its not telescopic

Notice drive side airbag

3. Mahindra XUV500 W4 Center Console

Here is the shot of the center console showcase the following:

XUV500 W4 doesn’t come with either a 6 inch touchscreen infotainment system of W8 or the basic monochrome infotainment display of W6. Instead, it just gets a clock and a very small screen which displays volume etc.

XUV500 W4 also misses out on the DVD player/DIS in-built infotainment system and gets a basic music system with CD and MP3 capability. Sound from the radio we heard was just average and well below the W8 system.

Notice that the top glovebox is fixed and doesn’t open

It also misses out on chrome outlines and richness.

Also notice the missing cover of the charging socket box. It doesn’t have the aux-in and USB at this place. Also the charging socket is present only at the front. Not available for the second or third row passengers as in other variants of XUV500.

4: Mahindra XUV500 W4 Instrument Console

Here is the instrument console:

It retains its analogue-digital display

Notice the absence of chrome outlines on the two center-pods

Continues with digital trip & tacho

While the left pod does display the gears, we could not ascertain if the right one continues to be the temperature gauge.

5. Mahindra XUV500 W4 Dashboard

Here is the dashboard pic:

The interiors are done in light walnut brown dual tone.

2 tweeters on the dashboard absent

Notice the passenger side airbag

Also notice the absence of sunglass holder and conversation mirror at the top

6. Mahindra XUV500 W4 Gear Lever, Arm Rest etc

This arm-rest cum box is non-movable

It is not cooled as well

7. Mahindra XUV500 W4 Glovebox

It continues with its independent light

Should be cooled (Not verified)

The box you see here are the wheel caps of the car.

It was told that they are exactly the same as other variants

We do not have a pic of the rear of this W4 variant but is exactly the same as the regular variants. Apart from the ‘W4′ badging at the rear.

Apart from this XUV W4 also misses out on the following features:

Tyre-tronics

Intellipark

Smart-rain sensing wipers

Intelligent light sensing headlamps

Glass embedded antenna

EBD

Hill Hold & Hill Descent Control

However, it continues with the following features:

Digital immobiliser

Disc Brakes on all 4 wheels

Chrome scuff plate for both 1st and 2nd rows

Roof rails

Power adjustable ORVMs (however they are not power foldable)

Driver seat height adjust & adjustable seat belts

Flip key with remote central lock

All 4 power windows

Rear wash and wipe and demister

Follow-me headlamps

Split seats

Points to Note:

XUV500 W4 comes only in two colour options – Silver and Black.

The interior theme in both of them is consistent

Upholstery is slightly lighter dual tone and has a different fabric as well (visible in a few pics)

XUV500 Variants Prices:

Here are the prices of all the variants of XUV500 ex-showroom in Delhi:

Mahindra XUV500 W4 Price: Rs 10,95,000

Mahindra XUV500 W6 Price: Rs 12,01,770

Mahindra XUV500 W8 Price: Rs 13,60,821

Mahindra XUV500 W8 AWD Price: Rs 14,64,329

As you can note XUV500 W4 comes at more than a lakh cheaper than the next W6 variant and in our opinion is sufficiently loaded for the price it commands specially looking at the overpriced competition.

Here is the XUV500 W4 with White XUV500 W8

Featured above is the XUV500 W4 with white W8 variant. On the W6 and W8, the pillars are all blacked out as you can notice, whereas W4 misses out and follows the basic body colors on the pillars.
